Fish ID, please

[cruiser]

This type of fish swims in front of the Bonarie webcam every so often and I don't find it on my fish ID card.

Can anyone tell me what the striped fish are?

This is a little tricky due to the light, resolution and what to look for to positively ID these fish. They look like Princess Parrotfish to me. But if they have yellow noses and striping throughout the tails (which is often very faint in young fish), they are Striped Parrotfish. Princesses have brown noses and a margined tail ("every princess wears a skirt.")
In any case, these are female, either juvies or intermediates. Your card will probably have the terminal phase which is much more colorful.

I have to agree it is a Princess!

I agree, juvenile/initial phase Princess because of the dark markings on the borders of the tail and it appears that the nose is dark.
